Did McCain get anything other than his medals for them? Did he get impeded from going to another carrier and flying another skyhawk after Forrestal? Did he get reprimands on his record or get any obstructions against his posting to the US War College (the center of American strategic development?)
You cite those five aircraft losses throughout the guy's career as if it was more meaningful than the fact that McCain barely got reprimanded for any of them (he went drinking after the training crash), but in fact he was REWARDED for his courage during the Forrestal fire and his determination and steel under captivity.
In other words, you try to brandish those aircraft losses as if they were meaningful because you're a fucking retard.

AHAHAHAHA I see, you really ARE barfing that fucking DailyKOS reverse-swiftboating shit that even the very worst trolls over there have given up on!!! You fucking moron. There's no comparison, McCain's service actually saw COMBAT and served with distinction even during the Forrestal fire. The five aircraft losses was about half the average aircraft losses for the wild weasel pilots and just slightly over average for Vietnam's 0.4 losses per 1000 sortie figure.
